As an example of adjusting spaces and how this affects ticket supply, Saratoga Performing Arts Center recently announced the Chamber Music Society of Lincoln Center’s season. The group will perform twice a day, almost every Sunday mid-June thru late-August at Pitney Meadows Community Farm in Saratoga. Seating is limited to 200 people a performance and tickets went on sale to the general public on April 6. The entire series is already sold out.
